Building Smarter

Build Back Smarter provides homeowners and landlords in the Christchurch, Selwyn and Waimakariri districts with free, no obligation, expert advice about ways to improve their homes.

Home owners receive a written Healthy Home Improvement Plan that is tailored to their needs and budgets, which provides a prioritised set of recommendations for their home.

It’s easy to do: just book your free appointment online at www. buildbacksmarter.co.nz, or phone the council on 941 8999.
